That's a "City light" or "driving light" Al;so notice the Yellow marker lights on the upper front frame. Those are normally only reflectors.

otakar - who's your parts supplier? That's a great set up, especially the headlight. Do tell! :silly:

Are you kidding me? Every one of those parts came from somewhere els. I got a dealership for the HID units and have the H4 sets in stock for $45. I originally used the dual beam version H4-2 bulbs with the Halogen Hi-Beam but the Hi-Beam is so dim in comparison to the Xenon Lo-Beam that i use the Hi-Beam position for my internal City-Light. That is the LED light that I turn on during the day because we have a headlight law in IL. The Tail light I built and the LED bulbs for the signals I also have a distributorship for. The Marker lights were built from trailer marker lights. the reflectors come from different places also dependent on weather they are round or rectangular. I also have round ones. The biggest trick is to find a convenient place to mount the ballast. The 7x6 reflectors are $80 and I also custom build "Halo" reflectors. The reflectors come with a standard Quartz Hi-output 90W bulb. Those are $130

I bought this tail light several years ago in a truck stop.

They were on sale for 20 bucks. About half price. 98 diodes.

I will be seen! (from the rear) :laugh:



Great job on the tail light. I bought a square LED trailer tail light for my KZ 750E with the trapezoid light. I'm merging the two lights to make it look stock.
